The Dubai boat show is becoming a very large show, I guess it was a very profitable show this year. Oil money you know.....

Egad, even Four Winns showed at Dubai. Wonder how they compared to the Ferrettis?

I suggested they show in Dubai, since they were not going to show this year in Savannah, I thought it might be a good idea.

No FW at our annual show in Phoenix either. When I asked the wiseguy at my FW dealer he said "we phoned in sick".

One of the two big shows in the UK is in Southampton. It's running this week, and photos are beginning to appear online -

Last linked thread, third photo, what is that boat? With the teak deck and rounded at front, and flybridge...

Pretty cool!

Sorry, that one escapes me. Was first shown in '06 (I think).
